I just picked up this sweet Budweiser Canoe, and can't really find any info on them! I've seen the print ad with one in it, and there was a TV commercial with one in it.
I heard a story about them only producing 3-400 of these, but I really can't find any info on them!! I personally know of two others in existance, so I can say it's not a "one of a kind".
It is 17' long and has a cooler hatch in each end! Molded in seats, and its made of wood and fiberglass or plastic.
If anyone has any info on these I'd sure appreciate it! Not looking for appraisals or to sell,, just seeking knowledge!
Hahaha, love it! Lets go!
I can assure you there is still a third in excellent condition. My parents bought new. Stored from 1978 until 2001 when they gave to me. I used 8 times that year and it sits atop my cabinets in pole barn as a sweet decoration for mancave since. 04/07/2021
Would really love to post my pics but cant figure out how to or wont let me?
Hi, Canoe. :-)
If you already have pictures of your canoe posted elsewhere, you can link them here in a comment.
If you don't, you can make a post of your own:

I don't know if anyone is reading these... my parents have one, my Dad got it from the A-B distributer down the street in the early 70s - it's in fair shape; faded and had some issues with the thwarts. Curious as to what you paid for the one you have, if you're willing to share.
I also own one of these canoes for a couple years. Bought it on Craigslist in 2019 era for $150. Such a steal. I drive 8 hours to pick it up. Mine has no wood and came with an owners manual. I will upload it soon if I have a chance.
